What a blast from the past. I remember driving along that interstate many times while I was living on Oahu.
Thanks for sharing.
I'm impressed. 30 minutes from start to finish? I used to take just the stretch from the H1/H2 interchange to the airport every day for work and that stretch alone took 30 minutes.
Why aren't the lanes striped? Looks like they just add more reflectors every year.
Hawaii DOT loves their reflectors on freeways. They must be out there fairly often to replace them as they probably take a beating.
Why are there reflectors?
Freedom Tower every interstate where snowplows aren’t used has reflectors. They just usually have stripes in between them.
The lanes aren't striped because the reflector + rumble strip combo is easier to find in inclement weather. Contrary to all the tourism adds, it rains pretty much every day of the year, and between October and April it's most of day. And the combination of salt air plus near constant winds and constant rain, it's cheaper to maintain since the paint isn't constantly being worn away.
@@TheCoyote808 that makes sense. I know that here, if the pavement is blacktopped, the stripes become invisible in the rain.
I love your video's!
Nice work!
I enjoyed this video
Can you please make a video about Hawaii Pearl horbor?
Oh man. I wish you had kept going. All the way out to Hawai’i Kai on Kalanianaole Highway.
There are loads of Hawaii videos on this channel that do not feature freeways...
Who wants to drive on this highway?
It feels like I am going on the capital beltway honestly all over again....
I drive on it daily, it's just another multi-lane freeway that gets congested during rush hour. Less trucks than the mainland.

Thanks. Yes I hate rush hour. It is so annoying to drive in
Dud anyone notice Honolulu in the distance on the bottom right at 3:04?
Oahu is only 50 miles long by 44 miles wide.
At the beginning of the west end of Interstate H-1 is at a much much much higher elevation and Honolulu is at a much much much lower elevation at to why you can see so far out.
While we'd like to believe Hawaii's Interstate system was created for the sole purpose of annoying the late George Carlin, the name is actually a misnomer. Not all Interstates physically go from one state to another; the name merely implies that the roads receive federal funding. Hawaii's major highways became Interstates as part of The Dwight D. Eisenhower System of Interstate and National Defense Highways, designed to protect the U.S. from a Soviet invasion by making it easier to get supplies from one military base to another.
Hey, could I use your video for mapping?
Also, California has lane reflectors on their local freeways.
How can there be an "interstate" in Hawaii?
Interstate dont have to be Interstate
Hawai’i is a state you know
@@thesharinganknight9859 INTERstate. Hawaii doesn’t connect to any other state.
@@theatremusician they’re multiple interstates that are in one state (I-16 in GA and I-4 in FL for example)
@@thesharinganknight9859 the point is flying over your head
One question, maybe you can answer it or maybe not. But why are they calling it an Interstate? It doesn't go between states (interstate) or even between counties in Hawaii which would make it an intra-state. It just goes across one small island. Really, the best they can call it is a County Highway. I realize that they receive money from the federal government which is fine. After all, they do pay their fair share of federal gas tax. But they shouldn't lie about it being an interstate when it clearly is not. There is a similar road in Florida. I-4 which just crosses the state from east to west and doesn't go out of the state. In that case though, it is a true intra-state road. Thanks.
The Hawaiian interstates exist for the same reason that the other interstates on the mainland do: they were built to design standards in accordance with AASHTO and received federal funding for their construction in accordance with the Federal Aid Highway Act of 1956. Upon entry into the United States in 1959, Hawaii's proposed network of freeways was included as being eligible for this federal aid.
The term "interstate" is more of a classification and a reflection of its funding sources and design standards than it is a reflection of the distances it covers. There are plenty of examples of mainline intrastate interstate corridors on the mainland as well - I-2, 4, 12, 14, 19, 45, and 97 are among them.
@@roadwaywiz I appreciate your answer but I am just curious as to why the federal government feels it is necessary to lie about it. (It's not just roads the federal government likes to lie about 😂). By calling it an interstate they are implying that it goes interstate which we all know can never happen. They should designate all such roads as a "Federal" highway to differentiate them from US highways. The same goes for the other "interstates" that do not go interstate. Floridas Turnpike was built to the same standards as interstates but of course doesn't receive federal funds and doesn't go interstate. It is known as Floridas Turnpike but has an unsigned designation as SR91. Anyway, thanks for your reply. And thanks for all of your videos, as always they are great.
@@Bentcypress I take exception to the term "lie" when it comes to the designation of such highways. Individual routes that receive interstate designation are classified as such because they make up their respective segments of the overarching "Interstate Highway System" and so their designation is meant to reflect this reality. And so on the contrary, by calling it an interstate they are implying that it belongs within this greater national network of interlocking freeways meant to connect the nation's urban centers and military installations. Looking at the "interstate" in the title as an implication of distance/states traversed is the wrong way to do so; rather, the "interstate" in the title is a unifying one that distinguishes a particular road that falls under the broader national system.
Hawaii's interstates (obviously) are intrastate in their routing (heck, they are all intra-county in fact, as none of them leave the confines of Honolulu County), but one of the major qualifying factors for their designation is that they all were built to connect the various military bases across Oahu (Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Wheeler AAF, MCBH, etc.) with the urban center of Honolulu and its largest civilian-use airport. Therefore on this tiny Pacific island, we see the true intent of the "Interstate & Defense Highway" system, even though it doesn't exactly conform to the standards we've come to expect from the freeways on the mainland.
While we'd like to believe Hawaii's Interstate system was created for the sole purpose of annoying the late George Carlin, the name is actually a misnomer. Not all Interstates physically go from one state to another; the name merely implies that the roads receive federal funding. Hawaii's major highways became Interstates as part of The Dwight D.

Bentcypress7 you’re a dumbass if you think the name interstate is a “lie”. It’s an interstate SYSTEM of highways, each individual interstate doesn’t have to cross states lines. Many dont, such as I-4 as you mentioned, but they are part of an interstate system that does. Many countries don’t have such a system and their freeway segments are isolated are retardedly disjointed from each other
What is that state
Hawaii
Do you drive another car?
How did you get to Hawaii?
✈
Hawaii, where disaster strikes, like Volcanoes, Tidal Waves, Attack of Pearl Harbor (which happen a long time ago) and the last one to enter USA. And TBH I actually don’t like going to Hawaii, but I respect your opinion
My Name Is A Sonic you are a special kind of stupid Hawaii is one of the most beautiful places on earth and has VERY FEW natural disasters. The volcanoes in Hawaii are nowhere close to civilization
What an idiot you are. Wherever you are from, stay there.
Hawaiis beautiful
